I have Azure Automation with Python Environment, but cannot install cffi module.

Question

I try to run python script in Azure Automation, but have such error:

The job failed because it could not install cffi python package imported in automation account. Error: ERROR: cffi-1.17.1-cp313-cp313-manylinux_2_17_x86_64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.

I'm using python environment with Python 3.10. What version of cffi can I use?

Where can I find list of working packages with Azure Automation?

@Dariusz Kmiecik Greetings!

Short answer: Do not use cp313, use cp310.

In the document it is mentioned that you use below format files for Python 3.10. However t seems you are using "cffi-1.17.1-cp313-cp313-manylinux_2_17_x86_64" which is cp313 so it won't work.

Please use correct file which is present here: cffi · PyPI 

You can refer to this document for Python packages in Azure Automation - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/automation/python-3-packages?tabs=py3%2Csa-mi
